Why do you think Sir Philip got so angry at Peter, when he through the rock it if it didn’t even hit him?
Sir Philip probably got so angry at Peter because it is the first time someone ever treated him like that an through a rock at him. He got really angry because maybe a long time ago these kind of things were taken a lot more seriously compared to now. If Peter was younger i don't think that Sir Philip would of had cared that much, but at 14 it is not normal to through a rock at someone.

How do you think Peter feels about what is happening and how he had to leave Cumberland?Peter must miss his family and friends a lot, but i think that he would be safer at home. Peter must be sad that he can't see his parents but maybe sometimes he doesn't mind being alone.

How do you think Kit feels about how Peter found out that he was actually a girl in disguise and that her name is really Katherine Russell?Kit is upset that Peter found out she was a girl because it was her big secret and she tried so hard to make sure no one would find out. I think that she also is upset that Peter might not keep her secret and that she will just have to trust Peter and hope that he tell anyone her secret, even by mistake.

What do you think would happen if everyone else knew Kit was a girl too?
If people found out that kit was a girl she would have to be sent back home to marry Sir Philip. Or maybe she would of have been killed for lying to Sir Philip.

Peter is going to be in a play and when he is on stage he sees that sir Philip is in the audience. After the play a man representing sir Philip comes and says that sir Philip in joyed the play. He is speaking with kit and they tell each other heir secrets. Peter says that he is running away from sir Philip. Then Shakespeare is writing a new play and then a man walks in and tells peter that he will miss the play cause he will be in Italy and ask peter if he could borrow the script so that he could read it and return it the next morning at 9:00. When kit finds out she thinks that the man is a pirate but also thinks that he might not be. The next morning kit and peter are waiting for the man to come but he never does. So then kit and peter go and find him. They caught him Justin the nick of time.

Passage Picker: PS
Page 114-115, paragraph 2 until the end of page 115. I picked those paragraphs because it really shows how Peter and Kit trusted Shakespeare and that Shakespeare was a good man to be with. I also think that it was a little humorous too because Kit never old Peter the whole story and they (Peter and Kit) knew each other more then they knew Shakespeare but Kit told Shakespeare her story anyway.

Page 110-111, paragraph 5 until the end of paragraph 6. I picked these two paragraphs because they were very humorous also. It was funny how Sir Philip was trying to “kill” Peter in the beginning and then all of a sudden he gives Peter a box of sweets to eat. I also found that very generous of Sir Philip but I am still on Peter’s side!
